WTB D400 - D700 or C400 - C800 Dodge truck

[patrick66]

I am looking for a medium- or heavy-duty Dodge or Fargo ---

1) 1960 - 1975 C-series (cab & chassis preferred) truck or
2) 1960 - 1977 D/W-series (cab & chassis preferred) or
3) Any year L500 - L700 COE truck (cab looks like the A100 vans/pickups)

The C-series has the front fenders that swing out from the engine bay for servicing.
The D-series looks like the D/W100-300 pickups, in terms of the cab, hood and fenders.
The L-series cab looks like the A100 vans/pickups (pre-1971 MY)

I have a nice 1968 Dodge D100 pickup, LWB, 4x2, 318 auto, heater, AM radio for a trade offer in the $5-6K range. Mine has Fargo emblems, hood letters and tailgate, though it is a lifelong TX/OK truck. The truck must be a driving, running truck with title (if applicable, not all states require one) and capable of driving to central Oklahoma. Send me a PM here, or post what you have here. I'm very interested in a nice truck, not a rust bucket, or a show queen. I am not interested in anything that is wonky, either mechanically or paperwork ("Gee, the guy I got it from lost the title" type of story!)

I'm in central Oklahoma. Thanks!

C-series truck

Early and late D/W-series

L-series

One is pretty nice. The other two are spendy, considering their appearance (one has no title). Hmmmm...

I saw a dump truck with the strange fold away fenders on marketplace Denver a few months back in pretty good shape. I'm not seeing it anymore. Pretty heavy duty with a two speed rear end iirc.

This is strange. It says it has a 366 gas motor which is a GM. I wonder if they mean 361.

It's more than likely a 361 BB

Anything with tires or tits is gonna take money.

That white and red grain truck on the Western Slope looks nice!

DO yourself a favor and find one with power steering! I have several D500-800 trucks and a W500. They are fun trucks but rather archaic for regular use.

 

[patrick66]

Power-assisted steering. All Dodges in the 60s and early '70s in the D/W series has a powered ram attached to the drag link. Very leak-prone and troublesome. I'd prefer manual steering. As long as the steering box is in good repair, a manual box is fine.

I think they call the non power assist , Armstrong steering! Lol, by all means I really dig those old trucks while ancient compared to a new Pete or KW they were good old horses.

Not all of them. Out of the six trucks I have had only one had power steering. Manual is fine for occasional work. This is coming from a guy that works these trucks often on our ranch.

I meant "All trucks equipped with power assisted steering" rather than ALL trucks...

Think I might have found my truck yesterday...trying to work a deal on it and transport on it today. for pick-up next week or the week after. Not going to say where it is or what it is, so I don't jinx the deal!

Cool! I wished I had the room and the covenants to allow me a cool project like a big COE or some such. Came across this but have no idea how old the ad is.
